Yield: 4 serving(s)
Ingredients: 1 Toulouse sausage, about 5.5 oz (150 g), casing removed (about 180 ml (3/4 cup) sausage meat); 1 Cortland apple, peeled and grated; 1/3 cup (75 ml) cheddar cheese, diced; Salt and pepper; 4 pork chops, bone-in, about 1-inch (2.5-cm) thick; 1 tablespoon (15 ml) butter; 1 shallot, chopped; 1 clove garlic, chopped; 3 tablespoons (45 ml) honey; 1/4 cup (60 ml) white wine; 1 teaspoon (5 ml) soy sauce; Salt and pepper

Preparation

- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 190 °C (375 °F).
Stuffing
- In a bowl, combine all the ingredients.
Chops
- Remove most of the fat from the chops. With a small sharp knife, make an incision, about 2.5 cm (1-inch) wide, horizontally through the meat, from the bone to the side to form a cavity to be stuffed.
- Stuff the chops with the sausage mixture. Close with a toothpick.
- In an ovenproof skillet, brown the chops on both sides in the butter and oil. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, brown the shallot and garlic. Add a little butter, if needed. Add the honey and caramelize. Deglaze with the wine and soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Return the chops to the skillet and coat with the sauce.
- Bake for 15 minutes, turn the chops and continue baking for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and cover aluminum foil. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
